The other guy, with a surprised look on his face, exclaimed, "Do you think you will run faster than the tiger with those?"His friend replied, "I don't have to outrun it, I just have to run faster than you."

The GameA businessman was talking with his barber, when they both noticed a goofy-looking fellow bouncing down the sidewalk. The barber whispered, "That's Tommy, one of the stupidest kids you'll ever meet. Here, I'll show you.""Hey Tommy! Come here!" yelled the barber. Tommy came bouncing over "Hi Mr. Williams!" The barber pulled out a rusty dime and a shiny quarter and told Tommy he could keep the one of his choice. Tommy looked long and hard at the dime and quarter and then quickly snapped the dime from the barber's hand. The barber looked at the businessman and said, "See, I told you."After his haircut, the businessman caught up with Tommy and asked him why he chose the dime.Tommy looked at him in the eye and said, "If I take the quarter, the game is over."

Power of the Big Mo
Momentum is a leader best friend
When you have no momentum, even the simplest tasks seem impossible
When you have momentum on your side, the future looks bright, and obstacles appear small.
Momentum is the Great Exaggerator – momentum is like a magnifying glass; it makes things look bigger than they really are.

Power of the Big Mo
Momentum Is Easier to Steer Than to Start – Getting started is a struggle, but once you’re moving forward, you can really start to do some amazing things.
Momentum solves more problems than meetings do
Momentum Is the Most Powerful Change Agent Given enough momentum, nearly any kind of change is possible in an organization. Followers trust leaders with a proven track record. They accept changes from people when they have led them to victory before. Momentum puts victory within reach.

Power of the Big Mo
Momentum is the Leader’s Responsibility – It takes a leader to create momentum. Followers can catch it. But creating momentum requires someone who has vision, can assemble a good team, and motivates others. If the leader is waiting for the organization to develop momentum on its own, then the organization is in trouble.
